    Every Christmas as a kid the family would stop by and see the amazing light show the Balian house would put on... Hope they still do.

    this photo makes me very very sad! a few years back they leveled this whole area and build a huge shopping center, this is like 400 yards from my home.
    the only thing they have to remind you of lockheed is cartoon airplane signs over the street marquee. you guys should check out a movie called one six right.

    Remember the Simpson's episode where Homer falls through a vortex and ends up in the 3-D world? He walks into an "Erotic Cake Shop" at the end... here is the shot being filmed on Ventura Blvd.
